I'm finally running my Stihl MS 261 CM with an 04 light bar vs my Husqvarna 550 xp Mark 2. This isn't the first chainsaw showdown I've done between these two saws on the channel. (Actually, I've got at least a dozen videos on these two chainsaws!) Check out round 1 and round 2 in the links below. After the first two rounds, I received many comments saying that I should run them against each other again with an 04 light bar on the Stihl. I wasn't able to get my hands on a light bar until now, so here we are doing the third round of 261 vs 550. ROUND 1: Stock (green chain) Stihl MS 261 CM vs Stock Husqvarna 550 xp Mark 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emQP7_XVDAY ROUND 2: Stihl MS 261 CM with full chisel (yellow) chain vs stock Husqvarna 550 xp Mark 2 (semi-chisel, x cut chain): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqxuwaDbA2A I really like both of these chainsaws. You may have seen my reviews on them (linked below). Actually, I love the 261 and the 550xp so much, that I couldn't decide between them! That's why I have both. I had no preconceived notions or agenda in running these saws against each other. I coughed up my own cash for both of these chainsaws.
